Further actions (reading, lectures, museums)

I have been reading several books that are related to engineering as a whole, namely, “Think Like an Engineer” and “What If?” These book has provided great insight as I get closer to my dream by knowing more about it. The book “What if?” includes quite a number of unsolved miseries and questions. As engineers are people who create something that would be useful to the community, these questions and queries are great for engineers as they can create based upon these problems. “Engineering beginner’s guides” is as just as its title says. The book introduces me to a large variety of engineering knowledge such as design engineering and the importance of knowing human wants. It also talks about morality and ethical issues of engineering, which makes me think a lot. The question of whether the engineer should be in charge of any casualties caused by the collapsing of a building or malfunction of a machine is rather thought-provoking.

 Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to attend any lectures as there wasn’t any engineering related lectures available at the times that I am free.
